i can definatly agree with the modifying it for my own purposes..... i have a mirc script i share with my friends but that never contains any mirc exe ive done anything too... i only use what i mess with (example would be changing bmp images and such) on my own personal use ... had i not told anyone i do that no one would ever know ive done it ..... i dont modify the version reply ... just the visual appearance. i really dont feel thats wrong as any change ive made clearly says its still mirc 6.03 to anyone who checks a version reply. Im not sharing what ive changed with anyone at all. i really dont see that as being a problem.
windows xp start screens are disgusingly awkward looking ... yet using the resource hacker they can be modified. now again i dont see this as any issue at all ... now will bill gates come to my house and yank my copy of windows away..... very doubtful, again just changing visual appearances
